Well the food is bad and the beds are hard

Ain't no one saying that I ain't wrong

I never learned to read, I never learned to write 
D                             G 
My whole life's been one big fight 
G                                  C 
I never heard about the righteous way 
C         G         D       G

I shot my woman with a 44 
G                                C 
I'll be right here till my dyin' day 
C        G          D       G

G                   D        G 
I got 99 years and one dark day
